Diminutives and terms of endearment appear frequently in drama. On AG diminutives: www.tandfonline.com/doi/pdf/10.1... and doi.org/10.1075/slcs... On terms of endearment: library.oapen.org/handle/20.50..., onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/..., and onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/...

Thank you! As part of the fellowship, i will stay at SCAS for a year in Uppsala, which will enable me to share and challenge my ideas with scholars in other fields. I am very much looking forward to it.
